Check the configuration of the router. You can also try to reset the
router. Outside of giving the machine a static IP address, there is
not much you can do on the machine. This is NOT a problem with the
Linux machine - it is a router problem.

If you want to know why this is a router problem, find some good
documentation on how DHCP works. The machine making the request
responds to the first DHCP server that replies...
